Now that he's an Angel, the former Rangers outfielder isn't pulling any punches about his time in Dallas-Fort Worth. "There are true baseball fans in Texas, but it's not a true baseball town," Hamilton told the CBS affiliate in Dallas. Hamilton said the folks care more about football. "They're supportive, but they also got a little spoiled at the same time pretty quickly." Hamilton will return to Arlington with the Angels on April 5. "It will be mixed feelings from the crowd," Hamilton said. "People who really get it will cheer, and the people who don't will boo. Either way, I'll do what I've got to do to help my team win."

The Yankees' shortstop told the New York Post that he knew he had a stress fracture in his left ankle before breaking the bone in the playoffs, but didn't tell the team. "They told me it was a bone bruise, and I am not going to ask them to look at it again, and eventually it turned into a stress fracture and broke in half. If you play, you play. ... I was told I was able to play. Unfortunately it broke, but I would do the same thing over again if I had to." On Monday, Jeter took part in the team's first full-squad workout. He jogged onto Steinbrenner Field to a loud ovation from several hundred fans.
